Tamta, Luca Hänni and Mahmood topping our polls after week 5!

Five weeks ago we started our polls where you can cast your votes for your five favorite acts in each of the two semi finals of the Eurovision Song Contest 2019, as well as for your one favorite of the six automatic finalists. The current standings in our three polls have slightly changed from last week, as we have a new leader in our poll for the second semi final!

Comparing to last week, there are no changes in the top five in the first semi final. Whilst Portugal now dropped down to 7th, Iceland is going strong and climbed up to 6th place and getting closer to Hungary in 5th. In the second semi final Switzerland’s Luca Hänni took over the lead from Duncan Laurence from the very first time.

I watched Eurovision in 1998 for the first time (by accident), and wondered what this show was where this girl with a cape sang in Croatian on Hungarian television. It's needless to say that I watch this show ever since. 2008 in Belgrade was the first Eurovision I've ever been to, and the one in Tel Aviv was my 11th.
My favourite Eurovision winner is "Everyway That I Can", and one of my all time favorite Eurovision songs is "Igranka".
